Preparation

Step 1

Partially cook the frozen Brussels sprouts in the microwave oven for 3 minutes. Cut each sprout in half. Fry bacon until crisp. Place bacon on a plate to cool and pour the drippings into a saucepan. To the saucepan, add broth, sugar substitute and salt. Bring to a boil. Stir in the Brussels sprouts, place a lid on the pan and cook over medium heat for 7-9 minutes. Remove the Brussels sprouts with a slotted spoon. Dot with butter and crumble the bacon on top.If you like a slightly sweeter flavor, add another sprinkle of brown sugar substitute and stir gently before serving.
